语言、生活形式与本体论问题

Language,Life Forms and Ontological Problems

语言与本体论密切相关,但这不等于说本体论问题可以归结为语言问题。语言是生活形式的一部分,本体论问题要结合生活形式加以考察。在日常生活中我们可以看到“是”和“存在”(成为、生存)密切结合在一起。随着概念的分类和分层,“是”和“存在”的关系发生从紧密到疏离的变化。形而上学的疑难与误用逻辑推导规则以及因果关系、实体—属性等范畴有关。只有从生活形式入手我们才能找到正确理解“是”和“存在”的相互关系的途径。

Language is closely related to ontology,but this does not mean that ontological problems can be reduced to language problems.Language is a part of life forms and ontological problems should be studied in combination with life forms.In daily life,we can see that“be”and“exist”(become,grow)are closely combined.With the classification and stratification of concepts the relation of“be”and“exist”changes from close to distant.The puzzle of metaphysics is related to the misuse of the rules of logical deduction and the categories of causality and entity-attribute and so on.Only by starting from the life forms can we find the correct way to understand the relationship between“being”and“existence”.
